Oddly enough, I went into a Lego store this last weekend in California and asked to see the Stuntz sets and the Lego Store employees told me they had been recalled, due to the front wheel peg quality. They said all of the display models had broken already. Then, today, the one Stuntz bike that we had gotten at Target broke in the same place the employees said was an issue. This wasafter only a couple of play sessions for my son. Anyway, just our experience.

Saw this blue variant of the pug mask at the Lego Store this weekend. They were pretty busy so they weren't able to tell me if they knew what other pieces were supposed to go with it. Update: Just saw this post on Instagram that shows the full fig: https://www.instagram.com/p/CPQohHOJs4U/?utm_medium=copy_link

It looks like on the blind boxes, there may be some identifying mark that will tell you who's inside. Picked one up today and saw the code 2R1 on the tape on the side of the box. All of the other boxes had different numbers, i.e. 3R1, 4R1 and one other box had the same number as the one I bought, 2R1. Anyway, if this holds up 2R1 is the wolfman. Here's a picture: https://imgur.com/a/qMVQ6Vm Anybody else snag one yet and see the code?

These things raise the base plates enough to match the height of a 'regular' plate pretty well, I've been using them: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2997977 I don't have a 3D printer myself, so I used that site to find someone to print them for me.

I've been working on my park for about 3 years. My wonderful, wonderful wife offered to swap sides of the office so as to allow for an expansion. This means shutting down the park for at least the rest of Spring for the winter remodal. I took a bunch of videos today to document how far I got. As I break it down, I'd love any feedback about the park. Spoiler alert: Its got a Jurassic Park section. Here's the video I made: As I remodel and move, I'll posting update videos, so feel free to subscribe if that interests you.

Thanks, appreciate it! Will update when the park reopens!

I'm looking at the new Disney train pretty seriously, but I don't have any room for it in my layout. I was considering putting the station on the table, and then using wall-mounted track pieces, have it ascend until it's suspended a foot or so below the ceiling. Suspended trains is something I've seen done a lot before, however, they usually run their entire length at the ceiling level track without returning to table based display and then ascending again. I guess my question is, has anyone experimented with altitude climbs of 6-7 feet, and would the descent basically be just too steep for the train to handle, speed wise. Would it just crash off the track at the slightest turn? Plan B would be to just keep everything suspended from the ceiling and then do a shelf to hold the station. This would be my first train, so appreciate any help. Thank you!

Thank you all so much! This is really helpful. I think I'm going to rethink my plan. Perhaps put the whole thing suspended with the station on a shelf.

Oh wow, that's so helpful, super specific! Thank you. Can I assume there aren't any elevation pieces like this one for the size track that the Disney train is running on? https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=85977&name=Train, Track Plastic, Narrow, Ramp, 5 Bricks Elevation&category=[Train, Track]#T=S&O={"iconly":0}

I hear you, makes sense. All I can see is something like this:

Am I seeing a Snow Speeder on the UFO ride?

So that's Dennis Nedry right?

Cool! Did you get to keep those kits from the sessions? How does that work? Do you think if I go tomorrow, I'll be able to get the goodie bag? or was that just for today? So excited!

I'm excited to hear how it is, I've got tickets for Saturday! Bringing my wife, toddler, and infant, so not sure how long we'll be able to stay lol. Hoping your notes help me prioritize!
